| Summary | The essential memoir of fashion pioneer Bethann Hardison, this documentary shines a spotlight on one of the fashion industry's most influential icons who, as a pioneering Black model, modeling agent and entrepreneur, has pushed the boundaries of fashion culture and has been at the forefront of progress throughout her career. In her lifetime, the singular and unapologetic Hardison has seen the pendulum swing toward and away from the Black model. At every setback, she spoke up and rallied her colleagues and clients in the industry to advance change. Now in her '70s, the Brooklyn native is writing her memoir, taking stock of her own legacy at a moment when the fashion industry is shaken by a racial reckoning. This is an absorbing record of the racial evolution of fashion and an original contemplation on the life of an unparalleled trailblazer. |
